PRESENTATION:
1. PRESENTATION TO ANDREW BENSON FOR RECOGNITION OF RECEIVING THE RANK OF EAGLE SCOUT
BACKGROUND: Andrew Benson has completed the requirements to receive the rank of Eagle Scout. Mayor Shepherd and the City Council desire to recognize Andrew and acknowledge his achievement.
PUBLIC HEARING:
2. PUBLIC HEARING TO RECEIVE COMMENT ON THE PROPOSED REZONE FOR A PORTION OF PROPERTY LOCATED AT APPROXIMATELY 850 WEST 1600 SOUTH (TIN: 12-391-0014) FROM (C-2) COMMERCIAL TO (R-3) RESIDENTIAL
BACKGROUND: The proposal includes a request for approximately 2.25 acres to be rezoned from (C-2) Commercial to (R-3) Multi-family Residential with the intent to construct 30 dwelling units, specifically designed as two 12-plexes and one 6-plex. This property is part of an overall development plan for the corner of Antelope Drive and 1000 West which already includes 26 businesses developed over multiple phases. The remaining property is tucked back off of Antelope Drive with no frontage on a major commercial transportation corridor. The property owner indicates that the remaining property has been marketed as commercial for 17+ years. The property owner feels that the parcel for consideration with this application has limited commercial viability and that multi-family residential represents the highest and best use of the property at this time. The Planning Commission recommended approval of the rezone, subject to certain conditions (site plan approval, subdivision plat approval, and execution/recording of a development agreement), during its meeting on Wednesday, September 2, 2015.
RECOMMENDATION: Receive public comment and close the public hearing.
3. PUBLIC HEARING TO RECEIVE COMMENT ON THE PROPOSED REZONE FOR PROPERTY LOCATED AT 1760 SOUTH MAIN STREET (TIN: 12-242-0002) FROM (C-2) COMMERCIAL TO (PF) PUBLIC FACILITIES
BACKGROUND: The site is currently vacant but has been the recipient of several enforcement actions related to the maintenance of weeds. A public facility zoning designation is appropriate as the uses on the property directly south are public buildings and this rezone will facilitate the success of Antelope Elementary by assisting with a parking need. The Planning Commission recommended approval of the rezone during its meeting on Wednesday, September 2, 2015.
SCHEDULED ITEMS:

7. CONSIDER APPROVAL OF THE COMMUNITY DEVELOPMENT BLOCK GRANT (CDBG) CONSOLIDATED ANNUAL PERFORMANCE EVALUATION REPORT (CAPER) FOR PROGRAM YEAR JULY 1, 2014 TO JUNE 30, 2015
BACKGROUND: The Council received a copy of the 2014/2015 Community Development Block Grant (CDBG) Consolidated Annual Performance Evaluation Report (CAPER). The public was given the opportunity to review the CAPER in the Community Development Office from August 20, 2015 to September 4, 2015. No public comments were received.
RECOMMENDATION: Approve the Community Development Block Grant (CDBG) Consolidated Annual Performance Evaluation Report (CAPER) and authorize the Mayor's signature to any necessary documents.
8. CONSIDER APPROVAL OF ORDINANCE 2015-17 ENACTING A TEMPORARY LAND USE REGULATION REGARDING PAWN AND SECONDHAND BUSINESSES PURSUANT TO UTAH CODE ANN. § 10-9A-504 APPLICABLE TO ALL OF THE COMMERCIALLY ZONED PROPERTIES LOCATED WITHIN THE CITY'S GEOGRAPHIC BOUNDARIES
BACKGROUND: Concern has been expressed to staff by residents, members of the City's Planning Commission and City Councilmembers about the number of pawnshops located in the City as well as the locations where they are permitted and proximity to other pawnshops. This Ordinance would temporarily prohibit accepting or approving applications for development, erection, construction, installation, expansion or relocation of any pawnbrokers, pawn and/or secondhand businesses (as defined in the City's land use ordinance or business license ordinance) on commercially zoned property throughout the City.
RECOMMENDATION: Consider approval of Ordinance 2015-17 enacting a temporary land use regulation regarding pawn and secondhand businesses and authorize the Mayor's signature to any necessary documents.
